Same happened a couple of weeks ago in SE23.


Exactly the same as you have described, three masked men (balaclavas) with a baseball bat thieving a catalytic converter, the police attended and said they'd already done five that evening. Patrol cars were out looking, obviously they still have not been captured. Resulted in the car minus it's cat converter having to be scrapped.

Last night thieves stole our catalytic converter from outside our house at around 8.30pm. 4 masked men, 1 with a metal bar. Just heard the chainsaw or whatever they used and sparks flying. Neighbour filmed it and we both called the police. Both on hold for 5 minutes to 999 before call was answered. Police didn't show up after reporting.


Kids witnessed all this and were scared stiff. Stuff of nightmares, like watching a movie.

It is a rough area. Happened in our street too.


There is so much crime, cars stolen, street mugging, vans broken into, parcels stolen from doorsteps. It goes on and on


The stats should be available.

Repeat crimes where perps recognised but not caught

Incidents not attended by police etc

These days London is so overcrowded that crime has to rise. Its un-natural for so many people to live in overcrowded places.


Theres no point even buying a nice car, its just a matter of time before something happens to it. My brothers range rover got stolen few months ago and sisters lexus hybrid got jacked few weeks later from different addresses.


Its a bit nuts out there these days.

    • As every day goes by, it looks increasingly likely that Trump is going to sell Ukraine down the river. It's a re-run of Chamberlain and Hitler over Czechoslovakia. Trump talks of re-allocating "assets" which means conceding assets of Ukraine to Putin  and of putting in peace-keeping forces into Ukraine  to "guarantee" security. History tells us that peace-keeping forces are ineffective. Remember Bosnia & Hertzogovinia in 1996. Remember the peace keepers on the Golan Heights. They disappeared without firing a shot when Serbia and Israel took military action. It will be the same in Ukraine. Give it five years (or less) and Russia will extend its land grab.  Sadly, history repeats itself because the appeasers fail to grasp the realities. Just pray that The Donald becomes the fifth before too long.  
    • Niko completed a third job for me now. A leaking tap that was oozing from everywhere. I called Niko in the morning, showed him a recording of the problem,  and he was over with a new tap, fitted within the hour. Job done, perfect! I know I can always rely on Niko. He is my go to plumber.
